The Kirksville community is invited to line up on Baltimore Street and send best wishes to the departing KHS wrestling team members as they head to the state tournament Wednesday afternoon.

The wrestling team is scheduled to depart from the Kirksville R-III campus at 5:30 p.m. on their way to Columbia, Mo., for the weekend's Class 2 MSHSAA State Wrestling Championships. Eight Tiger wrestlers, including Makenna Cook, Ethan Rentschler, Kylan Easley, Logan Summers, Tre Stewart, Austin Dovin, Branden Beeler and Kade Proctor are slated to compete for a KHS program that has won two of the last four Class 2 state titles.

Community members are asked to gather in the parking lot along Baltimore Street in front of JC Penney's and show their support.
